In some ways, the seemingly impossible dream of acting was made for someone as tenacious as Dee Christian, a.k.a. "Deke" Anderson. In high school, at a mere 138 pounds, he was an All State Center for the Reno High Huskies. And at only 19, he owned and operated the largest bodybuilding gym in northern Nevada, where he trained to become a 4 time State Champion body builder and also happened to employ Kane Hodder, a.k.a. "Jason" of "Friday the 13th" fame. Deke's love for acting was born at the Nevada Opera Guild, where he performed in many musicals. Not long after he threw Kevin Costner's character off of a bridge in Reno in the feature "Stacy's Knights," he headed to Hollywood. It was 1982; in Westwood, he founded, owned and operated Deke's Muscled Cabs, a pedi-cab business which paid his bills in the beginning. He was Taft-Hartlied into SAG on his first L.A. job. For 40 plus years following that timely Taft Hartley, Deke has had a wonderful career both in front of and behind the camera. Deke directed and field produced 63 episodes of "Real Stories of the Highway Patrol" across and throughout 8 of our great states. He thus developed a deep "nuts and bolts" sense of production needs, and is therefore as reliable as they come as an actor. And Deke is also incredibly nuanced in his acting range, and his reels show it - they reflect a wonderfully diverse cast of characters over many years - Dads, Executives, psychos, Satan, goofballs and more! Deke has also been privileged to be a part of truly iconic TV/Film moments. He is a Tiny Ash tormenting good friend Bruce Campbell in Sam Raimi's cult classic "Army of Darkness," as well as Lilith's bachelor party beefcake stripper love interest "Randy" on "Cheers," and the spoiled arrogant rich suitor striking out with Madonna in her "Material Girl" music video. And he was cast as a Series Regular in what was reportedly then the most expensive CBS TV pilot ever shot! His wealth of experience makes Deke not only an amazing actor, but perhaps more importantly, an amazing acting instructor. Deke has loved mentoring his students in one of the most prominent acting havens in Hollywood and the Southeast region, Next Level Acting Studios. Deke resides in Texas, Louisiana, and Georgia, depending on where he is currently shooting, but Texas with his wife, daughter and Schnauzer is where he calls home.

Deklon Roberts was born in Toronto, Canada. Deklon started playing sports such as basketball, football and soccer at an early age and continued throughout his Highschool years. It wasn't until his final year of high school that he fell in love with acting. Deklon took an acting class in highschool on a whim, not knowing it was going to change his future aspirations and dreams. From the first class he knew he loved acting, but he was terrible at it. Through his dedication and plenty of hard work Deklon started to become a better actor. The class's final exam was to perform a self-selected monologue. Being the joker he is, everyone expected Deklon to do a comedic monologue, but he decided to challenge himself and do a dramatic piece about the death of his pet. Though he had a rough start, he turned this class around for himself by acing his final monologue. Realizing by establishing a strong foundation success will soon follow, Deklon is continuously striving to improve his craft and hone his acting skills. He has since taken professional acting classes with Second City, E.V.N studios in Toronto and private acting lessons with Earl Nanhu and Marvin Karon. Deklon has guest starred in many shows such as Covert Affairs, The Firm, and Saving Hope, and also been on many nationwide syndicated commercials.

She's so funny, Rosie O'Donnell opened for her. Well, actually Rosie stopped in to do a guest set right before Del went on, but still, Del killed it right after that. Del Harrison or Del, as most people call her, is an excellent stand up comedian, writer, actress, host and one hell of an entrepreneur. In 2009, DEL created Another Sketch Comedy Show, an online sketch comedy show and kicked it off by spoofing the Monique Show (BET). The Mo'Nique Show sketch was so hilarious that Mo'Nique personally called DEL and invited her to be on her show. Since then, Del's sketches have reached a combined total of over 2 million views. And that's not all. This past year, Del was featured comedian on Fox's new stand up show Laughs, Arise's Entertainment 360, NickMom's new web series Actual Housewives of PTO, Flow (the Stage Play), two independent films and has been the Announcer for FOX's Laughs (all female episodes). And Del has built quite a resume. In 2005, Del was named one of the Best New Faces of Comedy at Jamie Foxx's Laffapalooza. From there, she was scouted to be on Robert Townsend's Partners In Crime: Next Generation (Black Family Channel). Since then, DEL has appeared as a host on ParentSociety.com, ComedyCentral.com's Open Mic Fight Promo, Centric Network's My Two Cents, WETv's Cinematherapy, XM Radio, GLOTV's The Gayest Ish Ever, Dr. Oz, FOX's The Mike & Juliet Show, ABC's The Revolution, Black Girls Rock Commercial, VH1's Why Am I Still Single, Warmed Up The Audience for The Oprah Winfrey Show; and, in January, 2013, she debuted on MTV's MADE, hosting Caribbean Comedy Wednesdays, her former weekly comedy show in Bronx, NY. In 2011, Del made her big-stage acting debut when she co-starred in and wrote for the stage-play, After the Walk alongside Grammy-winner, Kelly Price. And she's diverse: headliner, singer, song-writer, producer, actor and designer of her own t-shirt line called, Hot Chics Unite; all while lending quick-witted comebacks to the various radio shows and stages across the world. We could go on & on but when it comes to Del Harrison, Paul Mooney said it best, "This young lady has the IT factor."
